Hey mods,

I've been working on a lot of big internal changes for the eventual v7 release of Toolbox, and I'm now starting to publish beta builds for testing. We had a beta-testing system a while ago, but I've recently redone a bunch of our build infrastructure to support publishing releases to separate stable and beta channels to let me get big new features and changes tested faster.

*Please note that these beta builds are *expected to be broken some of the time!* Do not go and tell your entire team to install the beta version immediately!** I'm working on a lot of big internal changes which impact a very large surface area, and I don't have the capacity to test everything myself since I'm not really an active moderator anymore, so using the beta release is very much you volunteering to help do my validation and debugging work for me.

Also, since I'm hopefully going to be changing stuff fast, I'm asking that beta users be on Discord and willing to keep up with the beta support channel in the Toolbox Discord server[1]. This might change in the future, I'm really not a huge fan of locking information behind Discord servers, but for now this is going to be the easiest way to work with you all to get issues dealt with quickly. If you're interested in helping out, hop in our server and you can find all the relevant info in the beta support channel.
